Chapter 1622 - Things happen (2/2)

“That’s right. Guo Yin Da, why have you returned so late?” Sima You Yue stood up and told them to sit down.

“Isn’t it because of those things.” Guo Yin Da said as she sighed, “I really didn’t think that things would twist and turn to this state.”

“Uncle Guo, I heard that the others have all returned to the clan quite early. Why have you returned so late?” Han Miao Shuang asked.

“They left earlier, but Patriarch kept us behind. That is, our previous Young Master.” Guo Yin Da replied. His voice was happy so it seemed like it was a good thing that Tao Yi Xuan had kept them behind.

Sima You Yue was not surprised. Tao Yi Xuan was currently in need of people, and his relationship with the Guo Clan was pretty good. With what happened back at Rabbit Ear Mountain, he also knew that the Guo Clan was on his side. How could he not use them?

“Then I have to congratulate you all. In the future, the Guo Clan’s situation will get better and better.” Sima You Yue said with a smile.

“Hehe.” Guo Yin Da chuckled sheepishly.

“Uncle Guo, what happened after that? We saw the previous Patriarch getting cheated on. Then? Did they catch them?” Hao Miao Shuang gossipped.

“That…” Guo Yin Da looked around before ascertaining that there was nobody there before saying, “They did catch him. Of course they did. Not only him, but they also caught the currently unconscious Second Master Tao.”

“Second Master Tao? Why did they catch him?”

“Of course… that, you guys know it.”

Sima You Yue blinked, suddenly understanding.

“You’re saying that Second Master Tao and his mother, the two of them…” Han Miao Shuang cried out with shock. Her hands flew to cover her mouth.

“It’s enough that you know it, why did you have to say it out loud?” Guo Yin Da was awkward.

Sima You Yue smiled, “I really didn’t think that someone would actually be willing to have an affair with someone like Second Master Tao. I wonder what expression Tao Yi Xuan’s father would have had if he heard it. However, isn’t Second Master Tao still unconscious? They caught him and locked him away?”

“They didn’t. They just directly told Great Master Ji that there was no need to treat him. They would let him sleep for all eternity.”

“Since Tao Yi Xuan became the Patriarch, did those people reject?”

“With Ancestor around, who would dare to say anything?” Guo Yin Da recalled how the ancestor levelled an entire area with a single wave of his hand and his eyes shone with reverence!

“Even if that’s the case, it won’t be easy if he wants to take control of the entire clan. I wonder if he will still be able to fulfill his side of the deal when the time comes.” Han Miao Shuang asked.

It was hard for Sima You Yue to guess. She didn’t know when Tao Yi Xuan would be able to control the Tao Clan and when he would have the ability to fulfill his end of the bargain. With the Ancestor around, it probably wouldn’t take that long.

Also, he was so brilliant and his schemes ran deep. If those people really wanted to battle him, it was unknown who would win in the end.

“Let’s just wait. In any case, the name jades of Master and the others are still pretty well. We can still afford to wait a few days.” She said.

They continued chatting for a while, then everyone returned. Quite a few Guo Clansmen had come. Apart from the few rooms that Sima You Yue and the others had, they took up the rest of the rooms.

Before Guo Yin Da left, he said that he would go and prepare for the later part of the Tao Clan’s grand assembly. He said that the assembly had to go on. However, what was different was that they clan could send men to attend as well. As long as they had the talent for it, they could also receive nurturing from the clan.

Sima You Yue secretly thought that this guy really knew how to build up his reputation. To do this at this point in time would be extremely beneficial in pulling people over to his side.
